Massachusetts first gambling venue made close to $20 million in gross gambling revenue in its first full month in business.

The Massachusetts Gaming Commission reported through its website that Plainridge Park Casino raked in $18,155,783.86 GGR, which amounts to $8.9 million for the state.

“It is anticipated that Plainridge Park Casino will generate approximately $200 million of gross gaming revenue in the first full year of operations, which would translate to approximately $98 million in revenues to the Commonwealth,” the state commission said.

Plainridge Park Casino, operated by Penn National Gaming, opened to the public last June 24. The $250-million casino is an integrated racing and gaming facility that includes live harness-racing track in Plainville, Massachusetts. Its gaming area features 1,250 of slot machines, video poker, and video blackjack, among others, but it doesn’t have table games.
